Ingredients
 
 

  • 12 whole Oreo cookies
  • 1 cup green candy melts
  • ½ cup white candy melts
  • 12 individual star sprinkles
  • 1 teaspoon nonpareils sprinkles

Instructions
 

  • Melt the white candy melts following the package instructions until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, melt the green candy melts until smooth.
  • Take each Oreo and dip the bottom into the melted white candy, making sure the base is fully coated. Gently tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to let any extra candy melt drip off. Place the coated Oreos onto a baking sheet or plate.
  • Pour the melted green candy into a piping bag. Pipe the green candy over the top of each Oreo in a zigzag pattern, creating the shape of a Christmas tree.
  • While the green candy is still wet, press a star sprinkle at the top of each tree. Add colorful nonpareils sprinkles to decorate the trees and make them festive.
  • Let the cookies set completely. To speed things up, pop the baking sheet or plate in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes. Once the candy coating has hardened, carefully remove the Oreos from the surface.

Notes

  • Choose brightly colored candy melts and colorful sprinkles to make your Christmas tree Oreos pop with flavor and festive charm.
  • Candy melts set quickly, so have everything prepped before you start. If they begin to harden, give them a quick reheat to keep them smooth and easy to use.
  • Lay the dipped Oreos on parchment paper or a silicone mat to keep them from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
  • Try icing for fun designs, sprinkle on candy toppings like mini M&Ms or crushed peppermint, or drizzle them with melted chocolate or syrup to make each cookie unique.
  • Dust your finished cookies with edible glitter or shimmer powder for that extra festive touch.
  • Make sure the cookies are fully set before placing them in holiday tins or boxes. Use tissue paper or bubble wrap to keep them safe and looking great for gifting.
Serve: Enjoy Christmas tree Oreos with milk, hot cocoa, milk, hot cocoa, dirty chai tea latte, french press coffee, or matcha tea. They also make a great addition to dessert spreads, adding effortless charm and joy to any celebration.
Store: Keep your Christmas tree Oreos fresh by storing them in an airtight container at room temperature. They’ll stay perfect for up to one week. Avoid freezing them, as it can affect the texture and decorations.
